Hibs manager Paul Heckingbottom has been named Scottish Premiership Manager of the Month for March as he continues his stellar start to life at Easter Road.
The Hibees won two and drew once last month as they climbed up the table and have only lost one game since the former Leeds United boss took the reins in February.

Wins over Motherwell and Livingston, as well as a draw with Rangers, saw Hibs pick up seven points from nine last month.
So far, their only defeat under Heck came against Celtic in the Scottish Cup.

The Easter Road side face bitter rivals Hearts this weekend in a massive Edinburgh derby which could see them leapfrog the Jambos into fifth in the league.
With only one point separating the capital sides, there’s plenty at stake this weekend and both will have one eye on breaking into the Europa League spots before the end of the campaign.

Heckingbottom has helped Hibs secure a top-six finish to ensure the Edinburgh side will come up against the top teams in the country over the final five weeks of the season.
After looking like it might have been beyond them under Neil Lennon, Heck has done a brilliant job to turn things around in Leith.
